Time again for the holiday of togetherness and stuffing one's face… the holiday of Pilgrims, Puritans, and pardoning fair fowl. These sides are perfect for your turkey day celebration. Brussels served with walnuts and sweet maple syrup take the hurt out of eating “healthy.” And garlicky, truffle-y mashed potatoes will bring decadence to your table like you've never dreamed. Stop searching the web for recipes you can't really trust… Home Chef has you covered.
